WarBirds Info WarBirds is a MEGAplayer simulation of World War II aerial combat. Hundreds of players can flymsimultaneously in each of several arenas, dogfighting and bombing enemy targets. You choose any of four sides to do battle for, select from dozens of planes and variants to fly, and take to the skies to fight for the glory of yourself and your comrades.
The goal of WarBirds is to capture enemy airbases by destroying their defenses and landing. Air-base captures require a team effort, but individual players can receive points for kills in dogfighting and destroying ground targets.
The Planes The following planes and variants are all available to fly in WarBirds, complete with authentic flight dynamics based on actual WWII test data:

| The "World" of WarBirds The WarBirds "world" is divided into four nations engaged in a constant battle for territory. There are a limited number of airfields scattered around the terrain, any of which can be captured and held by any of the countries. The WarBirds terrain currently consists of islands and ocean, but may change from time to time to provide variety. Historical scenarios re-creating famous air battles complete with custom terrain are run from time to time as well. Lesser historical scenarios, using the existing terrain file(s) are organized on a weekly basis on Saturdays, Sundays and Wednesdays. The WarBirds Community The Warbirds Community has inspired hundreds of gamers around the world to form one of the most diverse and interesting communities in existence. Players have created their own online squadrons, complete with web pages, as well as organizing annual conventions, online historic battle recreations, and other events. In every case, iMagic Online supports these activities, but it is the players themselves who initiate and organize them. It's a testament to the quality of WarBirds that players are willing to invest so much of their own time and resources in these community activites. When you enter a WarBirds arena, you can be sure that there will be a great many interesting people flying along with you, from all walks of life and all around the world. Some will come to your aid, others may become arch-enemies, but all are there to have a good time. System Requirements To play WarBirds, you'll need a system that meets the following requirements ...
